DescriptionCVE.org

vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. In version 5.0.2 and earlier, the algorithm-store edit permission lacks an ownership check, allowing one algorithm developer to alter another developer's algorithm while it is pending or under review. The attacker can change metadata including the algorithm image or image tag, causing reviewers and nodes to trust a different image from the one originally submitted for approval. No fixed version is available as of this review.

AnalysisAI

Broken authorization in vantage6's algorithm store allows any authenticated algorithm developer to overwrite a peer's pending algorithm metadata - including the Docker image reference or tag - before that submission is approved by reviewers. Versions 5.0.2 and earlier of this pip-installable federated analytics platform are affected, with no patch available. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain low-privilege developer account on vantage6 instance
Delivery
Identify peer's algorithm pending review
Exploit
Send crafted API edit request to algorithm store
Execution
Overwrite image or image tag with attacker-controlled reference
Persist
Reviewers approve the altered record
Impact
Nodes pull and execute attacker-controlled container image

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a valid authenticated account with developer-level privileges on the target vantage6 instance - the CVSS PR:L confirms low-privilege authentication is a prerequisite, ruling out unauthenticated access. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) confirms this is network-reachable by any low-privilege authenticated user with no special attack requirements, yielding a score of 7.1 with high integrity impact and no confidentiality or availability component. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated vantage6 algorithm developer with a standard low-privilege account sends a crafted API edit request targeting a colleague's algorithm record that is currently pending review. The attacker substitutes the image tag with one pointing to a malicious container image they control. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the GitHub advisory GHSA-47w6-gwp4-w6vc explicitly confirms no patch and no official workaround are available. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all vantage6 deployments and identify instances running version 5.0.2 or earlier; notify operators of exposure. …
